A Memorable Stay
I am a grandfather who brought my children and grandchildren to Killaghy Castle for a 14 day family reunion. The website does not do the place justice. There is such history attached to this castle going back to the 15th and 16th century with original features still intact. I felt privileged to have chosen such a place to stay and be master of the house. I want to thank Maria and Pat for allowing our family to stay in their home for a memorable once in a lifetime unique holiday experience. David

Jake B.

Highly recommended for families and groups.
The castle's central location was ideal for an amazing tour of Ireland. The accommodation and grounds were superb. There was so much space to move around so we never felt crowded. The extra large catering kitchen came equipped with everything we needed. We would love to go back to Killaghy in the future. Jake, Virginia, USA.
